Te Esperando Lyrics in English Luan Santana

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Te Esperando by Luan Santana from Portuguese to English.
Verse 1
Even if you
Don't fall for my pick-up line
Verse 1
Even if you
Meet another guy
Verse 1
In a bank line
Some dude named Fernando
Verse 1
A fling, like that
No spark
Verse 1
Even if you two
Stay without liking each other
Verse 1
Even if you two
Marry without loving each other
Verse 1
And after six months
One looks at the other
Verse 1
So, yeah
I don't know
Verse 1
Even if you
Put up with this marriage
Verse 1
Because of the kids
For a long time
Verse 1
Ten, twenty, thirty years
Till you're startled by your gray hair
One day you'll sit in a rocking chair
You'll remember the time
When you were twenty
Verse 1
You'll remember me and wonder
Where could that guy be?
And I'll be
Waiting for you
Even if you're already a dotty old lady
Ninety, widowed, alone
I won't care
I'll call, ask you out
Make out on the couch
Even if it's beyond this life
I'll be there
Waiting for you
Verse 2
Even if you
Don't fall for my pick-up line
Verse 2
Even if you
Meet another guy
Verse 2
In a bank line
Some dude named Fernando
Verse 2
A fling, like that
No spark
Verse 2
Even if you two
Stay without liking each other
Verse 2
Even if you two
Marry without loving each other
Verse 2
And after six months
One looks at the other
Verse 2
So, yeah
I don't know
Verse 2
Even if you
Put up with this marriage
Verse 2
Because of the kids
For a long time
Verse 2
Ten, twenty, thirty years
Till you're startled by your gray hair
One day you'll sit in a rocking chair
You'll remember the time
When you were twenty
Verse 2
You'll remember me and wonder
Where could that guy be?
And I'll be
Waiting for you
Even if you're already a dotty old lady
Ninety, widowed, alone
I won't care
I'll call, ask you out
Make out on the couch
Even if it's beyond this life
I'll be there
Waiting for you
Even if you're already a dotty old lady
Ninety, widowed, alone
I won't care
I'll call, ask you out
Make out on the couch
Even if it's beyond this life
I'll be there
Waiting for you
Waiting for you

SONG MEANING

Imagine someone who loves you so fiercely that time, distance, and even wrong turns in life cannot shake their hope. In “Te Esperando,” Brazilian singer Luan Santana paints the story of a guy who sees every possible detour his crush might take: she might shrug off his flirtation, marry someone else, stay in an uninspired relationship for decades, and one day rock gently in a chair, wondering what became of that persistent admirer. Through each scenario, he promises to remain unshaken, patiently waiting with the same youthful affection he felt at twenty.

The lyrics mix humor and tenderness as Luan pictures her meeting “a guy named Fernando” in a bank line or enduring a marriage “for the kids.” Yet the chorus bursts with unwavering devotion: whether she is ninety, widowed, or “velhinha gagá,” he will call, invite her out, and cuddle on the couch. The song is a playful but heartfelt ode to lifelong loyalty, reminding listeners that true love can outlast missed chances and the ticking clock—and might even wait “beyond this life.”
